Made on a shoe-string budget, Hello Keanu! is an indie publishing project that brings together an eclectic group of Australian poets on the theme of Keanu Reeves. From Neo’s iconic cool in The Matrix to Scott Favor’s cruel indifference in My Own Private Idaho and more, contributors to the book offer multigenerational perspectives and a range of poetic styles as they explore and reflect upon their personal connection with the multifaceted actor and his cinematic roles. The result is a one-of-a-kind Australian poetry anthology that pays tribute to Keanu’s profound influence on pop culture, and celebrates the actor’s well-known acts of kindness, generosity, and inclusivity.
